Try the following simple home remedies for your knee pain -
- Rub clove oil mixed with coconut oil gently over the affected knee muscle; this will provide relief for knee pains.
- Ginger has excellent pain killing properties. Include liberal amounts of ginger in your daily diet.
- Maintain an ideal body weight, as even one extra pound puts a load of approximately 6 pounds on your knees.
- Be physically active to keep the muscles and ligaments in the knees to remain fit. Sitting in one corner crying with pain whole day wont help.
- If your knee pain is due to some injury then follow ‘RICE’ method. Rest till the injury heals. Apply ice, compression and elevation. Keep your leg in an elevated position for 20-25 minutes for better circulation.
- If there is a swelling in your knee which is the cause of pain, never use heat compresses, always prefer ice compression for the same.
